The Dead Pit
The Dead Pit is a zombie movie -- with a twist. The zombies are a result of the experiments of a doctor at an insane asylum. Twenty years ago, he experimented on a whole lot of his patients, cutting into their skull and playing with their brains. His experiments resulted in the death of his patients, who he dumped into a pit in the basement of the asylum. He's discovered in the middle of his gruesome endeavour and is shot dead by a fellow doctor, and the Dead Pit is walled up in the basement -- with all the bodies left in there.
Fast forward twenty years later, and the gunslinger doctor is now head of the insane asylum, where an amnesic patient, Jane Doe, is being admitted. Miss Doe doesn't think she has amnesia, but believes her memories were surgically removed. Upon her arrival at the asylum, things start to go bump in the night. There is an earthquake that opens the sealed basement walls, and the evil dead doctor, with glowing red eyes, now roams the asylum looking for fresh victims. He's particularly interested in Jane Doe, who screams way too much, and is constantly running around the asylum in her panties and a loose top. No one seems to notice her lack of attire. As the climax builds, the victims from the dead pit rise and are looking for brains from live people. With the help of a nutty nun, an explosives expert and a water tower about to be blessed by the nun, Jane Doe is out to put a stop to all this walking dead business before it gets out of hand.
This is a b-grade horror movie. Expect as much from the acting and cinematography. (As an aside, I just posted the movie poster at my scaryflocci blog.)
